A fun shoot!

This weekend we had some beautiful weather for a fall shoot - the colors were rich, the air was crisp, and I had an adorable 8-year-old redhead to work with! I know P outside of photography, and I admit that she has a tendency to be shy, but this little one has a supermodel hidden within - she was all over the place showing off and coming up with pose ideas! A few to share - I bet it won't be hard to figure out which shots were her idea!

Woah Website!

So I've finally sat down and started on my website, which is pathetically empty at the moment (although I do have a slideshow!) but at least it exists! I need to pump up my portfolio so I have more to put in my galleries, so if any of you would like to get a deal on some photography and live in the area, let me know :) We'll work something out to get you famous on my site!

I've got a shoot coming up with a little girl from the gym I work at this weekend and I am so very excited. She's ones of the biggest hams at the gym and I think doing photos with her is going to be one of my most entertaining shoots yet! I promise to post a sneak peak within a few days!

I survived the wedding!

I survived shooting my first wedding, and I must say, I had an amazing time. I wasn't quite prepared for how worn out my wrists would be after holding up a heavy camera, heavy lens, and heavy speedlight all day, but it was well worth it! I took over 1200 shots, and after going through them to pick the best of the best, I think I'll have about 450-500 to show the bride and groom.

The wedding itself was sweet, fun, and memorable - I'm not sure there was a single guest who could honestly say it wasn't a great time! I learned a lot about photographing to personality - i tried getting the bride into several serious romantic poses and she got us all laughing instead - i can't wait to share some of those images once they're ready - they show more personality than a romantic pose ever could!

A few to share here, I had a terrible time picking which ones to share first! I wish it didn't take weeks to get 450 pictures ready to show!
